Mixing up a presentation

For the most part, presentations by two presenters are pretty predictable. they either tag-team it or do an in-line "you-go-first" variation. Same-o-same-o.

But what if you looked at content? Mixed it up and looked at who was going to present what and do s pin on one of these techniques? At today's DFW AMA luncheon in Fort Worth, Graham Duke of Aviall and Jeff Warr of Zachry Associates told the story of the business partnership between their companies with a twist.

They tag-teamed to do the set up, but when it came time to tell each company's story, the opposite guy told the other guy's story. Graham told the ZA story and Jeff told the Aviall story. This reinforced the idea that it was a long and close relationship and that knowledge of a key client (or supplier) goes along way toward making it successful for both parties.


So, the next time you have to present, mix it up.
